Chapter Seven

"Niii-Saaaaan. . . You haven't taken Seldon out yet! It's your turn!" Al whined for the first time in his life.

"All right, all right," Ed got out a leash and called doggy Roy over to him. He clicked the leash onto his collar.

"I'll be back in a bit." the blond said in a bored tone, and walked outside.

&&&&&&&

Doggy Roy sniffed at the air. He never knew he'd live to see the day when Ed would walk around with him on a leash.

Naughty thoughts filled his head, and he quickly shook them off. He gazed up at his 'owner' and 'sighed' sadly to himself.

Ed and the dog stopped at the park for a break, where another dog was currently running around in as well. Doggy Roy and Mysterious Dog looked at each other. The Mysterious Dog let out a 'laugh.'

"Hey! I've never seen you around here before!" he said in a punk like voice. "but ya know what else?"

"What?" Roy asked.

"Yo mama's so stupid that she chased her tail for days until she finally croaked! Like a frog!" The Mysterious dog laughed. Roy growled.

"What was that?"

"you deaf? You probably still a pup! You dad probably abandoned you, where you got thrown into a pound and got stuck with that bean!"

That struck a nerve.

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING SO SMALL THAT HE'S SO LIGHT HE COULD BE BLOWN AWAY AND NO ONE WOULD NOTICE BECAUSE HE'S SMALLER THAN A FRIGGIN' SHRIMP, HUH?" Doggy Roy snapped. He bared his fangs, and went rushing towards the other dog.

"H-hey-a, I was jus' jokin'!" He yelled, before running away, as Roy chased after.

"Seldon!" Ed yelled, running after the canines.

It wasn't long until the blond lost sight of both dogs, and fell behind, gasping for breath.

"Damn it. . ." he cursed under his breath. He wondered what was going on with his dog. The mutt. . .

Ed decided to go to HQ to get some search parties out. Why couldn't he just go to a police station? Because HQ was closer, that's why.

&&&&&&&

Ed walked down the halls, randomly listening to people's conversations.

"Oh, Edo-Kun," Riza greeted, holding a stack of papers. "why are you here so early? You're not supposed to be here in an hour."

"My dog ran away." Ed answered, scratching the back of his head. The woman blinked.

"That's it?" she asked.

"Yeah, well. . . HQ was closer than the police station, so. . . Yeah." The teen put his hands in his pockets and sighed.

"Well then. . ." Riza placed the stack down on a desk, and walked towards an office. "I'll go talk to a search party. . . You wait here. . ." she sighed, and whispered something about 'irresponsible kids these days. . .' to herself.

As Ed waited outside, he decided to listen to a random pair of soldiers chatting among themselves.

". . .oh, and did you notice Mustang was missing?"

"Yeah. . ."

"I heard he eloped somewhere."

Wait a second.

"Could you repeat that?" Ed asked, jumping into the conversation.

"Oh, there's this rumor going around that Mustang eloped."

'Holy freaking shit. . .' Ed thought. He thought about the reason why Riza told Al not to tell him about Roy. . . eloping?

Riza walked out of the office.

"All right Edo-kun, I've called out a search party for you. We could find your dog in no time," she sighed, and glanced in the direction where Ed was. She saw him with his eyes wide, and in shock. "Edo-kun?"

"Oh! Oh, yeah, sorry." the blond boy said with a grin, scratching the back of his head. "Well! Let's go!" he charged out the door, hiding his shock with a cheerful face.

&&&&&&&&

'Damn it, where did that mother-bleeper- go?' Doggy Roy thought. If he were human right now, he would bash that son of a bitch's (ha-ha. Get the joke?) face right in! Then fry the dog, and feed him to Havoc, who would say how much of a great cook Roy was when it came to dogs.

The canine saw a group of soldiers walking across the road ahead. He wondered what it was all about. One of the soldiers glanced at him.

"Look! I think that's it! The one with the red collar and is small."

"And black." said another officer, in a stupid tone.

"How do you know that's it?" Soldier C asked. "there are lots of dogs here that are small, black, and have red collars!"

"Oh, you could be right."

The soldiers moved on, leaving a very confused doggy Roy. He decided to follow them.

He followed after two soldiers, whom Ed was listening to before.

"Did you see the shock on Fullmetal's face?"

"Yeah, I don't know why, but he seemed pretty upset, hearing about Mustang eloping and all."

Wait.

'I'm not eloping, you FREAKS! I'm walking right behind you!' Doggy Roy yelled in his mind.

"Say, I wonder who he was running away with in the first place?"

"Probably one of Lieutenant Havoc's dates. Poor guy, I feel sorry for him."

"Sometimes, I can't stand that Mustang. He sleeps with too many women at once."

'Hey hey hey!' Roy thought. 'I was still a virgin until Ed came into my life and forced me into it! Okay, maybe it was me, but he was willing!'

The dog threw that naughty thought out of his head, and proceeded to listen.

"I heard Fullmetal moved out of the dorms months ago."

"Where is he staying?"

"I'm not sure."

Roy decided it was a good time to get away from the officers chatting like married women, and thought it would be good to find Ed.

'. . .he seemed pretty upset. . .' Oh, if only he weren't a dog right now, he could go up to Ed, tell him the full story, and everyone will be happy.

"Hey, you there!" Roy heard a dog call. He turned around, and saw the dog he met several minutes ago, as well as a few other. . . LARGE dogs. . .

'Uh oh. . .' Doggy Roy thought.

"Great to see you again, Little Buddy. . ." The Mysterious Dog grinned. "here's some payback from when we first met, eh?"

The large dogs bared their fangs, and dashed towards Roy, barking and gnashing hungrily. The main character dog just stood there, mouth hung open in surprise. The dogs came closer and closer.

Roy decided he should have run moments ago, just when he turned around to get away. Before one of the large dogs could get him, Edward jumped into the scene, using his automail arm to punch the dogs in one blow.

The canines whimpered, and raced away. Fullmetal turned to Doggy Roy with a smile, but the dog saw a hint of sadness and anger in the human's eyes.

"Let's go home." he said.

&&&&&&&&

"Hey, Al, I'm back." Ed said, in the tone he spoke in before he had left. Rei walked out from the kitchen (the room where he practically lives in)

"He's out shopping again for dog food for Ro. . . Seldon." the teen said. Something jumped inside Ed. If Roy was going to cheat on him, then he could cheat on Roy.

But wait, what if it was just a silly rumor? The two officers said it was, but what if it really wasn't?

Roy has been gone for a long time. Maybe he wasn't going to come back? Maybe there really was no special surprise?

"Edo-Kun? Are you okay?" Rei asked, with worried eyes.

'Maybe Roy was treating on him! Like when Riza told Al not to tell him anything about Roy, for fear he would be worried or upset! Roy was gone a long time, but Ed thought he still should remain faithful to his lover.

Without thinking, the blond forced himself onto Rei, making their lips meet. Doggy Roy 'gasped' as he watched the scene. What the hell was Ed doing? Rei had the same reaction as his brother did.

When he and Ed broke apart, Rei's eyes widened in shock.

"Edward. . . What did you. . .?" he wanted to know what exactly the younger teen was doing. He didn't want Roy to be upset, what with him watching the whole thing right now.

"I've given up on Roy now!" Ed blurted out, and forced another kiss onto Rei. He pinned the shocked Mustang to the ground, pinning his arms above his head.

Roy just wanted to cry.

I AM EVIL! STILL! And no, Ed hasn't given up on his darling Roy.
